Many factors can impact the time required to start tracking your fleet. These could include:
- Size of school bus fleet
- Custom school bus and student GPS tracking development requirements
- Student tracking requirements
Unless substantial custom development is required (most school bus GPS tracking projects requiring some level of customization), from the point of purchase, can be completed within a few days of the projection above. Your unique bus GPS tracking project timeline will be determined with your School Bus Roster project manager.
Ordering new school buses? That is fine. The School Bus Roster team can work with your school bus manufacturer to have your school bus GPS tracking devices installed before you receive of them. Just let us know your plans at the point of ordering or before.
Our goal, from the first time we discuss your need for school bus and student GPS tracking, is to make the process, use of the system, integration with your existing software, and ultimately the safety of your school bus riding students as simple as possible.
